Description

Takkoku no Iwaya Bishamondo enshrines Bishamonten. Built against a rock cliff, the dramatic hall is linked to legends of Sakanoue no Tamuramaro and has a distinctive power as an ancient sacred site of Tohoku. Bishamonten is a deva associated with battle and protection, and the entire hall carries a taut atmosphere. This Buddhist spot brings together cave worship and prayers for protection of the land in a form distinct from Hiraizumi’s Pure Land culture.
